Hmm... There may be some serious issues with this code, but I wonder 
how hard it would be to get this working (untested):

on rawKeyUp
   put " " &field "blueWhile" & " " into field "blueWhile"
   put the htmlText of field "blueWhile" into bw
   replace " while " with " <font color=" & quote & "#0000ff" & quote & 
">while</font>" in bw
   set the htmlText of field "blueWhite" to bw
   delete char 1 of field "blueWhite"
   delete the last char of field "blueWhite"
end rawKeyUp

Anyone care to clean this up, limit coloration to the line the cursor 
is on (performance), etc.?
